We've always used sheepskin - so warm and cosy

Happy to win ANYTHING, but garden things especially welcome

It would seem obvious that anything stopping the trajectory of droplets - yours or theirs -is sensible whilst Covid is still around.

I think Dominic Cummings did what was sensible in the circumstances, as - I’m sure - did many other people under their particular circumstances if necessary.

A great effort from a terrific gentleman

Always up for new shoes and the more comfortable the better

It’s an unrealistic ask. I have a husband who had an oesophageal cancer operation last year and of course we’ll do all we can (aged 78 and 80), but we’re both reasonably healthy. Even so we have very different interests and would probably go mad if we saw nobody else for 4 weeks, never mind 4 months!

CLAGGY soil, NOT "clergy" as per predictive text before!.

Have a small garden with clergy soil made even classier by the constant rain we've all endured this year - need all the help I can get!. Fingers crossed.

I've been caught TWICE and thought I knew how to evade them. I was caught when TSB were having problems and it was widely reported on the news that they were unable to deal with customers for the best part of a week. The first I knew was when my mobile phone provider sent a message to say my request to transfer my phone number to another provider was about to be actioned. I phoned immediately to say I hadn't actioned anything but they wouldn't stop it and it went ahead, quickly followed by two notifications of "speedy payments' made by TSB to two Arab-sounding names of he entire contents of our bank account and another of our overdraft facility (never used by us) - just pre-Christmas. The Bank would not answer their phone so I drove the 8 miles to our branch bank and they, too, couldn't get Head Office to pick up the phone for over 4 hours of constant ringing. I reported it to the Police, who also phoned me back about a year later to say they thought they had traced the perpetrators and did I still have the details, which I did - but I still never heard if they were caught. The bank did refund me the money but I also contacted the Ombudsman. I avoided the "overpayment of tax" scam, and regularly, daily in fact, get phone calls from abroad claiming to be from my phone provider. I simply put the phone down and try never to open an email from friends with 'no content'. It is rife everywhere. We were completely devastated for days afterwards.

Why downsize a) when its taken three quarters of your life to find the place you now live in and b) your children have children of their own and if they don't live nearby you need to be able to put them up. Also sorting through a life-times' possessions in your 80's, recycling etc. is exhaustingly hard work.

Hope for the best - need all the gardening. help I can get!

Would love the kindle and also interested inOver 50’s insurance.

Since when were we all held to account by a bunch of teenagers joined by masses of people with nothing to do? Sure they have a point but the UK is doing better than most. How much plastic do they have in their own homes and how do they all travel to cities to cause the havoc they do

I look forward to winning - God knows I need it!

Answer to my prayers!

A beautiful country and on my bucket list so fingers crossed

Always comfy and hope to win

Grew up in the East and love the country

I've always loved Africa and always enjoy returning

Need a new kindle as mine is full up - fingers crossed

I wish someone would would show older people how to go about blogging, twittering etc. The internet is here to stay and it behoves older people to know how to go about it all and I'm amazed how many older people just aren't interested

Finger crossed - just what I need!

Love Ronnie Scotts; love Norah Jones. Fingers crossed.

Thank heavens for Amazon

Have just returned from visiting the National Park in Sibenik and thought it would be lovely to see more of this beautiful country. Fingers crossed

Fingers crossed - always wanted to go to Thailand, and a lot of other places too

I need all the incentive I can get so here's hoping...

I've long been an advocate of Hotter's but there's always room for one more pair. Fingers crossed.

Fingers crossed - as ever!

I grew up in Africa but never made it to the Gambia so would very much like to get to know it a little
